i-80 Gold Shareholders Confirm Board Appointments at Annual Meeting
With 60% of outstanding common shares represented at the June 23 meeting, i-80 Gold Corp. shareholders solidified the company's leadership structure. The vote confirmed a nine-member board of directors and formally welcomed industry veteran Stephen Gottesfeld to the team, while marking the departure of long-standing director John Seaman.
John Seaman, a founding board member, concluded his tenure at the meeting. Chairman Ron Clayton acknowledged Seaman's strategic contributions during the company's growth phase. Filling the vacancy, Stephen Gottesfeld joins the board with a background spanning nearly three decades in the mining sector. Gottesfeld previously held executive leadership roles at Newmont Corporation for over 25 years, specializing in sustainability, governance, and legal affairs. His appointment aligns with i-80 Gold’s ongoing efforts to advance its multi-asset development strategy and transition into a Nevada-focused mid-tier gold producer.
